Gear & clothing

Gear · Pack 14-17m kites for the low average wind (7.9 kts); a directional board handles chop better than a twin-tip. Bring backup kite sizes as wind variability requires flexibility.

Clothing · A 3/2mm wetsuit suits winter months (Nov-Feb) with booties for rocky entry; 2/2mm works for spring/fall. Water temperatures range 8-18°C depending on season.

Respect local fishermen and recreational swimmers; stay alert for other water users near the port area. Keep a safe distance from other kiters in variable wind conditions.
